INTUITION, PACE & RE-ALIGNMENT

In this episode I’m sharing a SUPER RAW real time update about how life is going as an entrepreneur and new mom really diving into how to balance these two identities and even if you’re not in the same season of life I think you’re going to get something valuable from this. We talk a lot about evolution, mindset and goals, as well as the importance of listening to your own intuition (even if it’s telling you to slow down). I also dive into the subconscious beliefs and programming that can impact...

Unintentional Self Sabotage: What are your TRIGGERS?

In today’s episode I have on one of my closest girlfriend’s Sam to have a JUICY convo about triggers and the importance of taking ownership of our reactions but also figuring out WHERE they come from.

Is “GOLD DIPPING” holding you back in a MASSIVE way?

In this episode, I brought on my friend Sam who of all my girlfriends I have some of the JUICIEST convos with to talk about a concept she coins”GOLD DIPPING”. It basically refers to avoiding or rationalizing issues that you KNOW you want to work on but pretend to not in various areas of life. We talk about how to identify gold dipping in yourself and others, the dangers of avoiding problems, and the consequences of not taking action. We also discuss the importance of recognizing your own worthin...

A reminder to step back & see the BIG PICTURE.

In this episode, we’re talking about the importance of setting realistic goals and avoiding overwhelm. I use pointillism which I know seems random but it will make sense when you hear it as a metaphor for taking small actions that add up over time. I think this will be a really timely reminder with a new year but also a good perspective to keep with you as you progress throughout the year! Can’t wait to hear what you think of this one!! &&& Exciting news mentioned in this episode: If...

What needs to be LEFT in 2023 ✌🏻

My intention with this episode is to LIGHT A FIRE under your BOOTAYYYY to kick off 2024 because we’re talking about the importance of leaving behind what no longer serves us in order to move forward into 2024 with all that PEP in our step to build lives we’re OBSESSED with. I share several common blocks, such as rigidity of a plan, comparison to others, fear of failure, and fear of success that often hold us back and therefore need to be LEFT BEHIND. Can’t wait to hear what you think of this one...

WHY NOT YOU? + Real talk on if you’re letting yourself dreaming BIG enough + What's coming in 2024

Today I want to remind you that what you admire in others is often a reflection of what is inside you… & I really want to urge you to start asking yourself “WHY NOT ME?”. In this episode we also talk about the importance of discovering your own unique vision and goals making sure that what you’re focusing on ACTUALLY feels aligned for you. I also hope this episode serves as a reminder that you deserve a life you’re obsessed with, and what might making you feel unmotivated might simply be tha...

(PEP TALK) Can we make this all more FUN?! A reminder to PLAY & STAY in your own lane.

In today’s episode I share a fun analogy that I hope will remind you that it’s CRUCIAL to TRUST your unique PATH through life (& in pursuit of your goals) a little more. We also talk about how if you actually EXPECT obstacles and reframe life more like a game… it’s going to make this wild ride even more FUN. I think this one will make you laugh and also think… “Oh DAMN, that hits home”. Can’t wait to hear what you think! &&& Exciting news mentioned in this episode: If you wanna k...

[HIS & HER] Navigating "Failure", PIVOTS, Goal-Seasonality & the need for the FIRST step

Today I brought on my husband Seena to do a real time life update and have a juicy transparent conversation about failure, in particular if you are setting goals around something you’ve set before and didn’t follow through on. We also talk about re-defining what success is for you, the need for alignment and PIVOTS in particular when you are in a new season (like we are with a 6 week old and you might be in a different way) and we touch on how to really build confidence when starting small! I th...

UNAPOLOGETIC EVOLUTION & real talk on PEOPLE PLEASING TENDENCIES

Today we’re talking about stepping up to unapologetically evolve in order to build LIVES that we’re obsessed with (even if some people don’t get it). We’re also talking about raising the necessity to really dig into the root of how people-pleasing tendencies might be holding us back from becoming the person we want to be. I’m sharing a couple of my own personal experiences in hopes to also help you also ask yourself some questions to support you in stepping more into this unapologetic era of lif...

(PEP TALK) why you just CANNOT skip this part (even when you might really want to)

We've got a juicy episode today talking about the necessity to not skip the beginning stage; not just for the reason of making yourself proud (although that’s important) but also for you to live within integrity, and to open up doors for a future version of you. This is a different take where I’m breaking down some personal stories of how I built my business, some pivots I took and being really open about it because I think you’ll be able to find yourself in my story. So excited to hear what you...

THE CONFIDENCE BOOSTER

I'm pumped that you're here for today’s episode because we're talking about a topic that I feel is applicable all year long, but something about this season just really hits. We're talking about building confidence.

[PEP TALK] What will ACTUALLY keep you going on your 2024 goal (& it might not be what you think) ;)

For today's pep talk we've got a juicy topic! We’re talking about how sometimes we judge ourselves for the reason that we are getting started on a goal and have this belief that our reason for starting has to sound good to other people so we create this story in our head that our reason for getting started on a goal that we’re working on needs to always be about other people. Today we’re chatting about the idea of ALSO incorporating a more “selfish” reason to get started because that actually mi...

[PEP TALK] A reminder to TRUST your TIMING & the ups & downs of your PATH

Today we’re talking about loosening the reins a little bit. Because sometimes we have this very narrow focused plan of how we want to accomplish something and when we hit like one little bump in the road, we tell ourselves the story that we're not cut out for it, or that somebody has something that we don't, or that it's not supposed to work out because we met this resistance…. But in reality, I actually think sometimes things don't work out the way that you planned because they're supposed to w...

Navigating NEGATIVE FEEDBACK & EXTERNAL EXPECTATIONS

Today’s episode we’re chatting about expectations and handling negative feedback. I feel like both of those topics are so relevant, especially this time of year, because you might be spending some time or more time than you're used to with family this time of year with the holidays coming up and as much as you could love your family or they could have the best of intentions, sometimes your family doesn't understand your vision for your life or doesn't agree with the choices that you're making. A...

[PEP TALK] It's time to SQUASH the GUILT or BLAME & get on your OWN TEAM

With today’s episode my intention is for it to feel like a hug from a girlfriend and a reminder through the story that I share, of how IMPORTANT it is to be on your team, and how often guilt and blaming ourselves is the narrative we default to (especially as women) and honestly... I want to help in any way I can to prevent you from doing that. So we’re talking today in a really raw way; I cannot WAIT to hear what you think!

[PEP TALK] Reframe your focus to THIS & make whatever you want happen.

Today we’re talking about MOVING away from the need for CERTAINTY to instead focus on developing SELF-TRUST.

You know that feeling in your gut that is telling you you’re meant for more? That feeling and inner knowing that you were meant to do big things is your worthiness. Jamie Kern Lima, founder of IT COSMETICS spoke at empowerHER live again this year and I was somewhere between floating and feeling so pumped I could run through a wall after this conversation! My hope is that this episode does the same for you and serves as a reminder that you are worthy just as you are. There are also some fun stori...

[PEP TALK] Is it really JUST you? A powerful perspective on the HUMAN experience

Today I’m sharing a story of a really different perspective that I got that about “UNIQUENESS” that I think is gonna be so helpful for you, whether you are navigating maybe a new season in your career, you're stretching and evolving to that next level, starting a new business, building a podcast and you're navigating some resistance in a tough season in one of your relationships or your marriage, with your health or in a season of motherhood.

[PEP TALK] Are you AFRAID to shine your light?

Today’s episode is a JUICY reminder on how important it is to be ASPIRATIONAL to people, and not focus only on being INSPIRATIONAL. So often we hold ourselves back or we’re afraid to call our shot because we are worried we might offend someone, feel like we’re “bragging”, or are nervous that people will think we are leaving them behind. But the truth is, you showing up and doing life YOUR WAY that feels aligned can be ASPIRATIONAL to others who have similar goals as you, whether thats in busines...

In today’s episode I brought on my husband Seena to talk about finding the right path!

[PEP TALK] A reframe on PACE; Is it time to adjust?

Today’s episode is a reminder that we can CHANGE our PACE. It’s so easy to get caught up in societal pressures of getting to our goals more QUICKLY, whether those are career goals, relationship goals, or any other milestone we are working towards, but it’s important to not compare our own selves against other people’s lives (or their perfectly curated instagram feed) because they might be in a different SEASON that you and their pace may look different. Along with that, we can’t compare our CURR...
